Re: EVF GX9

Dear friend, basically GX7, GX85 and GX9 use the same display unit. The only exception, GX7 and GX9 are upward tilt-able (which is great for waist level shooting) and GX85 does not.

As you noticed GX7 use a silder type of adjuster at the bottom of the evf (because it can be tilted up so there is a space for it, IMHO it is hard to do precise adjustment), whereas the fixed evf of GX85 has to use the traditional design, has the dioptre adjuster on a side in form of a dial (IMHO it is far easy to do precise adjustment but also more prone to change by accident). Had decided to skip GX9 and so have no experience on this model.

Currently GX7 and GX85 are my current main cameras and never found any obvious difference between them. I don't need that extra eye cup so can't comment on it. However I am a long time progressive focal length spectacle wearer such that my eyesight, if not corrected, could be the worst of the average. Might be the only difference between us, you are left eye user and I am right eye user... 😁
